God made the wearing of the Hijab scarf an obligation and instructed Muslim women to wear the head covering in the Holy Quran. So, wearing it is an act of righteousness and an act of obedience to Allah (God). A Muslim woman wears the Hijab to gain the pleasure of her Master. It is the core teaching of Islam that whatever God instructs one to do; it is always best for them to follow the instruction—whether one may understand the logic behind it or not. Islam stresses the relationship between the body and the mind. In covering her body, a Muslima woman shields her heart from spiritual impurities. A Muslimah woman wears the Hijab to uphold Islam’s code of modesty. Islam’s code of modesty extends to all aspects of one’s life, including their dress and how they carry themselves. A Muslim’s clothing is an outer manifestation of inner purity, beauty, and humility, as wearing the Hijab for women embodies moral conduct, character, manners, and speech. Like any other act of worship, the act of dressing modestly and wearing a Hijab will require faith, sacrifice, discipline, and patience. Dressing modestly strengthens the relationship between you and your Lord. This cute Hijab Islamic book for Muslim girls aims to inspire & educate about the importance of wearing the Hijab for women for the sake of God alone and ignore the outside noise, ignore people’s stares and comments, and realize that this journey is worth the struggle. ★★ Sophia's Journey to Learning About Hijab & Loving it for Muslim Girls & Muslim Women ★★ is a cute hijab book for kids about a story where Sophia looks up to her older sister Mina, who means the world to her. As Sophia gets older, she starts to take notice of her big sister’s dedication to her hijab scarf. She observes her sister wearing the hijab at school and their family’s restaurant. Sophia grows curious and asks her big sister Mina why she wears a hijab and what it represents. The story ends with a surprise, and a new chapter of life starts for Sophia.
